Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 559

For the sake of getting a heart and protecting Julianne, Henry had deliberately not crafted the final dose of Ava's antidote. And without this final dose, there was no way Ava would be completely cured.

I coolly replied, "You're not the only one with a gift for toxicology and antidote research, Mr. Quill. Surely you know that no matter how good you are, there'll always be someone better than you out there.

"And you should also be aware that someone like William would never allow you to hold Ava's life in your hands indefinitely."

Henry's face grew paler as I spoke. Given what I just said, he now understood that Ava no longer needed him.

Before he could say anything else, I added with clear impatience, "Stop wasting time, Mr. Quill—make your choice! If you don't, I'll simply have Julianne escorted straight to prison."

Julianne had just calmed down. Once she had, the drug-induced disorientation had kicked in again. She had been groggy and barely able to keep her eyes open. But when she heard I was going to send her to prison, her eyes instantly flew open.

Julianne and Regina were both people he loved most and couldn't bear to lose. And the more Henry thought about it, the more unbearable the idea of something happening to either woman became.

"How could you be so cruel, Emilia!" he roared, like a madman. "Even if you refuse to acknowledge Lianne as your sister, as a human being, how can you do this? She and Regina are both living, breathing people!"

I chuckled sardonically at his words. "So only their lives count and others don't? Did you think a suitable heart would just fall out of the sky? Or do you think hearts were like other organs that can be donated without jeopardizing your life?
